CEOAS Guiding Principles for Field Safety

  •  
  • Safety is a core value in the field. We strive for everyone to return from the field free from emotional or physical harm.
  • We assess the risks associated with activities prior to setting out and communicate these risks with the group in advance, how they are mitigated, and who shares responsibility for mitigating them.
  • We seek training and take safety precautions for ourselves and our participants for a safe field experience.
  • We have an in-place communication and emergency plan.
  • We strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment of personal growth that is free of racism, harassment, bullying, and discrimination.
  • We listen and consider input by all.
